Trying out new color palettes


I've added some greys and a light violet wash to the underglazes I'm using on this series. Here's a "before" with just underglaze... and the "after" shot. These puppies were still a little warm (alright, I confess...  hot!) from the kiln when this pic was taken.

I really like these a lot. I notice some have the black that goes over the rim and some do not. Personally, I like the ones with the black contained and the exterior glaze on the rim. The softness of the outside glazes is nice.

Ron - Thank you so much for the input. I've heard that from several people and I am going to make that change in my next work cycle. Also trying some softer glaze interiors so it's not such a contrast.

Thanks for visiting my blog, Your work is beautiful and I would like to see the difference a soft colour interior would make.

Nice new blog/website and beautiful, BEAUTIFUL new pots! Since your store is almost 3000 miles away from me....I can't just come in and buy something. Do you have a catalog or on line store? How do others usually buy from you? If I ever have the opportunity to visit Cambria, your studio/gallery is a top priority!
